    Bought it for my boyfriend for Christmas, was so happy to see him open it! He loves it, still getting used to using it and all the features. Do want to say that it doesn't really have long battery life but, I guess that's not too much of an issue. It does also heat it up a lot but, I am not a game system expert and I don't know much about those type of things. Overall it was a really good buy and im happy that he enjoys it.

    It’s a really good vr headset, i was impressed of the performance and clarity of the device. It lasts about 2h on full charge and even longer with the strap. But I do recommend a 3rd party headstrap

    We love this product. We use or Quest 3 weekly, doing anything from gaming to watching tv. Its great for the kids and adults. But just know that if you get motion sick at all then take it slow.

    I like this VR very much. I use it a lot on airplay works flawlessly. But I also do have very fast Internet. The flat lenses are nice. I have very long eyelashes and it was annoying with the old VR headset always rubbing the old lenses. Overall, I think the quest three is a good purchase.

    After owning the Q1 and skipping the Q2, the Q3 is a huge upgrade and exceptional in everyway. Biggest con is battery life but that can be dealt with by adding a external power source or battery strap. Overall happy with my purchase, I have played it almost everyday since!

    The new era of VR is here. The resolution has stepped up and everything seems more crisp. Only bad thing I can say is the battery life, but you can add a battery pack. The tracking seems good so far but need more time with it. Very happy with the purchase. It’s fun to show off to friends and family.

    VR is here and Quest 3 blows my mind

    I mean.. it's cool. I don't know if it's as cool as Vision Pro but it's also not $3k+. I was as skeptic. VR? Again? Metaverse? I'll wait another 10 years. But naw... It's cool! This is nothing like the VR I knew of. I feel like I'm in another world. Even watching movies is much better with this. I put this on. I lay down. And the "theater size" screen appears in front of me no matter my position. And I'm completely off from the outside world and just immerse in the movies. The built-in speakers are pretty good. I bet with a nice set of bluetooth earpieces the audio would be even better. I tried a few games and I'm enjoying them. They really keep me moving. And the movements are accurate. No jankiness. Graphic is smoooooth. There's also an app that allows you to use it as "desktop" so you can actually work on this! I can't wait to try it. The comfort of it can be better but there are accessories you can get.

    What a massive upgrade. The clarity is mind blowing, better than i had hoped. The whole experience is super smooth and eveything about the headset feels premium. Quest Link works beautifully and my steam VR games have a whole new dimension with the increased resolution. AR features work great too.

    First things first, the visuals are out of this world. I've tried a few VR headsets before, but this one's a cut above the rest. The graphics are so clear and vibrant that you feel like you're actually in the game. No annoying screen-door effect or anything that takes away from the immersion. Whether I'm battling dragons in a fantasy realm or exploring alien planets, it's like being there for real. Comfort is a big deal for me, and I'm happy to report that this headset nails it. The design is ergonomic, the head strap is adjustable, and the cushioned padding on the face keeps it comfy even during marathon gaming sessions. I've lost track of time in there, and my face never felt sore or sweaty. The motion tracking is another highlight. It's super responsive and accurate, which makes a world of difference. Whether I'm reaching for something just out of reach or doing some slick dodging in a fast-paced shooter, it keeps up with my every move. That's what makes it feel so real.

    Significant upgrade from the Quest 2

    I would say everything is a great upgrade. The graphical quality is much clearer, the headset is a lot lighter, and the controllers arent as bulky. If you have a quest 2, i think it is 100% a worthy upgrade if you have the money but the 2 is still a perfectly capable headset if you can’t.

    I have now had the OG oculus quest, quest 2 and now this little masterpiece. I think if you are really into VR this is worth the upgrade. The mixed reality is way better than the quest 2. It somehow feels a little less cramped inside, the controls are nice and slim and seem to have less tracking issues, and everything just seems to be more responsive and faster. The clarity on the new lenses are amazing and love that they brought back the wheel to change the IPD setting. I will say you will need some additionaly items to get some extended wear comfort but overall i am very satisfied. The new graphics updates that are coming out amaze me! Getting so close to PCVR! (Red Matter 2). If you are any type of gamer, skip the quest 2 and go straight to this set. You wont regret it!

    This is my first VR device and im just blown away by how amazing this thing is. When you’re playing it feels so real like you’re actually there. And the mixed reality takes this to a whole other level. Highly recommend this to anyone who wants to buy a VR headset!

    Compared to the quest 2, the quest 3 is noticebly faster. On top of that the screens in the quest 3 are also noticeably higher in resolution. The slimmer profile also makes it much more comfortable to wear. The battery life is about the same on the quest 2 if not a little shorter.

    Had this for a few weeks now. It's fine. It's better than the Quest 2, but only just. The strap sucks, you should get an aftermarket one with a battery because that sucks too. It plays BeatSaber well. I'm not using it as much as I expected.

    Nice VR Upgrade all around

    Definitely an all around step up from the Quest 2. Just wish the battery life was a bit better since it seems to only last about n hour to 1 1/2 hours or so depending on the game. Extra battery packs seem to die quicker too but that probably because it demands more power for the upgraded features and functions. Otherwise though would highly recommend this VR headset above the rest. Even with the lower battery life still worth it!

    This was an upgrade from my HP Reverb I bought about 3 years ago. I love VR and I cannot recommend it enough. It's so immersive. The Quest 3 being wireless and at a comparable resolution to the Reverb with a mixed reality bonus makes this headset a steal!

    Much better than the quest 2. Upgraded from a Rift S. The quest 3 improves on the quest 2 in all important ways. Better comfort, better graphics, FOV and the sound is finally acceptable and doesn't require headphones. Pass through is great and can now be used when in VR.

    I love the pancake and sharper lenses that these provide! I only primarily use it for Sim Racing. I had the Quest 2 before this and it is a noticeable difference. I have yet to try to use it as a standalone device but anyone using it for PC then i would highly recommend it.

    Very glad to have made the upgrade to the Quest 3. The headset is far lighter and more comfortable to wear than the previous one, and the full-color passthrough mode is also very convenient. Definitely also have noticed the difference in the graphics quality. Highly recommend.
